MY MELBOURNE is a truly inclusive film that weaves together four captivating narratives, exploring themes of sexuality, gender, race, and disability. Set and shot in Melbourne, the film takes a deep dive into the stories of real people, told through the lens of migrant experiences. From its authentic portrayal of Melbourne’s multicultural vibe to its honest and bold exploration of identity, MY MELBOURNE offers a striking and intimate look at what it means to belong.
What makes MY MELBOURNE stand out even more is its collaboration between Indian filmmakers and emerging Australian creatives. The film brought together four of India’s finest filmmakers – Kabir Khan, Onir, Rimas Das, and Imtiaz Ali – who worked alongside Australian cast and crew from underrepresented backgrounds.

Each of the film’s four stories is inspired by true, lived experiences, making it a deeply authentic portrayal of life in today’s Melbourne. These stories reflect the diverse faces, voices, and struggles that make up the fabric of this vibrant city.
If you’re looking for a film that tackles real-world issues with heart, honesty, and empathy, MY MELBOURNE is one you won’t want to miss.
